First possession must be established though and how can it be established in the air before one hits the ground?

By the time Jennings hit the ground Tate had his hand and arm on the ball too, and he was under Jennings. So I believe it was dual possession which goes to the offense and the call was correct.

Should have maybe been a pass interference call on both the Packer who pushed number 14 and Tate for pushing a defender on the play too.

That call for hitting the QBs legs on the last drive was ridiculous. If they can't hit the QB high or low, what can the defender do?

Packers up 12-7 should have given up an intentional safety. This would have run time off the clock and allowed them to kick off, probably putting the ball further back in field position then they did punting the ball. Bad coaching mistake there.

That was my thought too, Have the punter run around the endzone to burn time off the clock also. Seattle would have gotten it on their own 40 vs. the Packers 40

If the Packers take the safety then it’s 12-9, and all Seattle needs is a Field Goal to tie the game and send it into overtime. So, I disagree with you about that. All Seattle would have had to do is get to the GB 40 to attempt a 57-yard FG.
